#guangliu braindump ideas, a thread:
finally found a way to fix the initial idea of guangliu specializing in toy making,
say hello to clockwork dolls, guangliu
say hello to clockwork dolls, guangliu
and also how childe finds her and wakes her up,,
be ready to fight an ancient adeptus childe
be ready to fight an ancient adeptus childe
lumine is the mc in this story
random brainrot idea: childe and guangliu as dmitri and anastasia bec russia idk
morax personally teaching her how to use a sword but she prefers fighting with a catalyst bec wounding her hands is the worst case scenario for a craftsperson
another brainrot: xinyan teaching her how to play modern instruments and she gravitates to the ukulele,,, playing softtt songs to the wild glaze lilies
she borrows tons of history books from the library and most of the time spends her whole entire day there, even was offered a job as an intern
still thinking if she'll receive a vision after waking up
but if she do, it's probs be geo (strict adhesion to rules; safely keeping gui.zhong's domain for millenia)
or anemo (freedom/a path to a brighter future; her finally accepting the deaths of gui/li)

sorta leaning into anemo tbh,,, i've already thought of a scenario (but apparently that falls under the Neo Geo CEO au lol so maybe not???)
also neo geo ceo au is privately mine to enjoy so i might not even share details abt it lmao
it's also where my prev bio was from
"aliu au where they chose their careers over each other"

i hab a lantern rite story for Guangliu but its not hers. Rather, it's Lian and Zhongli's.
"You usually write 2 names on your lanterns."
"Ah, because one of them came home safe."
(basing on lanterns as guides for the souls of the departed)

Lian is my friend's OC and Guangliu's roommate! She's also Zhongli's personal assistant.
We've mutually decided our OCs being incorporated into our own stories. Basically, they're inseparable wahaha

I have long thought of this but I haven't told anyone
But Guangliu and Ganyu are childhood best friends! They are around the same age and were "adopted" around the same time.
I always imagined Ganyu, despite being forgetful, never forgot Guangliu's face, and was the first+

She was the first person to come to her and welcome her back, and would sometimes visit Guangliu at the Library and have lunch together.+

+When Ganyu had a little more free time, they both would go out and sing to the wild glaze lilies. Of course, they'd sing to the city's lilies as well, but the ones in the wild are more "appreciative". Lol.
Since I'm on the topic, Ganyu, Moon Carver, Mountain Shaper, and Cloud Retainer are the few adepti who knew her pre-Archon War.
Madam Ping doesn't know who she is but has heard about her in her youth. She greatly admired her for passing the Adepti Trials at such a young age.+

+Xiao doesn't know anything about her except that Rex Lapis mentioned her once when he noticed that his weapon, Vortex Vanquisher, had another crack in it.
"it seems my spear is in need of repair. Guangliu always disliked me forgetting to maintain my weapons."

Guangliu calls Moon Carver "Moonmoon" bec she knows Moon Carver is a softie at heart and is the only adepti who tolerates being called a nickname.

Ganyu and Guangliu reliving their besties moments and applying each other's adeptus eyeliner.
(canonically ganyu doesnt have the red eyeliner but maybe thats coz shes to busy to put it on everyday)
Lian in the background: holdup, am i not an adepti too
